subito Library Service

The ZBW participates in the subito Library Service. The subito Library Service is a cooperative service of libraries aimed at libraries at home and abroad.

Library information

Libraries primarily financed from public funds (at least 52%) can offer a document delivery service for books or articles from journals and books to their users by subscribing to the subito Library Service. Processing time will be 3 business days at most. In case of delivery by mail shipping time must be added to processing time. Journal articles will be supplied without paying lending royalty.

If you work in a library located in Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein or Switzerland, please register your library in user group 4.

If you work in a library in a non-German speaking country, please register your library in user group 8. We regret that due to copyright law delivery to libraries in the USA or the United Kingdom ist not possible.
